Hurricane Ian is set to cause destruction in the Carolina states of the US after causing chaos in Florida. Experts say that human-induced climate change increased the amount of extreme rain that Ian unleashed by ten percent. US forecasters expect Hurricane Ian to unleash life-threatening conditions on the Carolina states on Friday after causing devastation in Florida, where it killed at least 12 people with the death toll expected to rise. Before pummeling Florida, Ian plunged all of Cuba into darkness after downing the island's power network. Human-induced climate change is resulting in more severe weather events across the globe, scientists say - including with Ian.
